FAQs
What kind of cables can this trunking hide?
This trunking is designed for single, low-profile cables such as speaker wire, bell wire, telephone cable, and alarm cable.
Can I paint the trunking?
Yes, the white finish is paintable. Ensure you use a paint suitable for plastic surfaces for best results.
How is the trunking installed?
It features a self-adhesive backing for easy peel-and-stick installation on clean, smooth surfaces.
What are the dimensions of the trunking?
The trunking measures 16mm (width) x 8mm (height).
Is this suitable for hiding mains power cables?
No, this trunking is not designed for mains power cables due to its small size and intended use for low-voltage wiring.
How many pieces are included in a pack?
Each pack contains four pieces of trunking.
Troubleshooting
Trunking not sticking securely
Ensure the surface is thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Press firmly along the entire length for at least 30 seconds. For persistent issues, consider using a suitable adhesive tape or mastic compatible with both the surface and the trunking material.
Trunking pieces do not align perfectly
Measure and cut pieces as accurately as possible. Ensure ends are cut cleanly. If a slight gap remains, it may be filled with a small amount of paintable filler after installation.
Difficulty cutting trunking cleanly
Use a sharp, fine-toothed saw or a specialized plastic cutting tool. Make slow, controlled cuts. Lightly sand any rough edges after cutting.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Effectively hides thin, low-profile cables.
- Provides a clean and tidy aesthetic finish.
- The decorative shape is more visually appealing than standard trunking.
- Easy to install for DIY or professional use.
- Paintable white finish allows for customization.
Cons
- Limited capacity due to small dimensions; not suitable for thicker cables.
- May require precise cutting for tight corners or complex installations.
- Requires a clean, flat surface for optimal adhesion.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the surface where the trunking will be applied is clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. Measure the required length and cut the trunking pieces to size using a fine-toothed saw or appropriate cutting tool. Peel off the protective backing from the adhesive strip and firmly press the trunking into place. For longer runs or heavier cables, consider using additional adhesive or screws (if appropriate for the surface and trunking).
Compatibility: This trunking is designed for single, thin cables such as bell wire, speaker wire, telephone cable, and alarm cable. It is not suitable for mains power cables or multiple data cables. It adheres best to smooth, flat surfaces like painted walls, finished wood, or tile.
Care: To clean, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the finish. If painted, use standard household paints suitable for plastic surfaces.
